Abstract

A composite magnetic material contains metal magnetic powder composed of metal magnetic particles, and mica interposed between the metal magnetic particles as an inorganic insulator. The mica has an Fe content of 15 wt % or less per 100 wt % of the mica in terms of Fe 2 O 3 . To manufacture the composite magnetic material, first, mixed powder is prepared by mixing the metal magnetic powder and the mica so as to be dispersed into each other. Next, a compact is formed by pressure-molding the mixed powder. Finally, the compact is heat-treated.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composite magnetic material comprising:
metal magnetic powder composed of metal magnetic particles formed of at least one selected from the group consisting of Fe, Fe—Si alloy, Fe—Ni alloy, Fe—Ni—Mo alloy, and Fe—Si—Al alloy; and
mica interposed between the metal magnetic particles,
wherein a Fe content of the mica is within a range of 0.5 wt % to 15 wt %, inclusive, per 100 wt % of the mica in terms of Fe 2 O 3 .

2. The composite magnetic material according to claim 1 , wherein the metal magnetic powder is composed of the Fe—Si—Al alloy.

3. A method for manufacturing a composite magnetic material, the method comprising:
preparing mixed powder by mixing metal magnetic powder composed of metal magnetic particles with mica so as to be dispersed into each other;
forming a compact by pressure-molding the mixed powder; and
heat treating the compact,
wherein the metal magnetic powder is formed of at least one selected from the group consisting of Fe, Fe—Si alloy, Fe—Ni alloy, Fe—Ni—Mo alloy, and Fe—Si—Al alloy, and
a Fe content of the mica is within a range of 0.5 wt % to 15 wt %, inclusive, per 100 wt % of the mica in terms of Fe 2 O 3 .

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein when forming the compact, the mixed powder is pressed at a molding pressure within a range of 6 ton/cm 2 to 20 ton/cm 2 , inclusive.

5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the compact is heat-treated at a temperature within a range of 700° C. to 1000° C., inclusive, in a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
